Mr. G photo shoot...







Yesterday I was able to photograph this adorable little boy. He is so cute and so fun. My daughter calls him her "buddy" it's too bad that they won't be able to grow up around each other because they are so cute together. I will totally add him to her list of sutors hopefully his mom doesn't mind :)

Fun photo project!


Photobucket

Anyone can play along! I've had a lot of fun with it so far. I only started doing the project on the second week the themes were "togetherness" or "Metal" I picked togetherness because the first thing that comes to mind when I here that word is Sadie with our dog Missy. They are bestee's for life. Everytime Sadie cries in her room Missy runs to her door and starts scratching like crazy. I let her in and they say goodmorning with a slobery kiss through the bars of her crib. The rest of the day is spent following each other around, stealing each others food, and lots and lots of hugs and kisses.

Walker Photoshoot!








Today I finally finished editing the photos from a session I did two Saturdays ago. I say finally because it's always my goal to get my photos done in 1 week. This last week was a fight to get any time in. I was battling sickness, a very needy baby, fatigue from being pregnant, and my 2 year anniversary was this weekend. Regardless, I loved this photoshoot the family was awesome so I had a ton of great photos to work with. The kids were great. It was freezing outside but they were such good sports. Their Mom had them very well trained in the art of posing for pictures. They were perfect little models for me. We had a great time at the museum. We were the only ones there so they let us use the artifacts as props! I felt like we were VIP's or something. They even let the kids sit in a classic car that they had displayed. It was a great day!

Before and After



Here are some examples of the work I put into editing. One image can take an hour or more! When you hire me I give you a CD with 10 of these super edited photos along with 25$ credit toward prints. Only 100$ for the whole photo shoot! Not bad right?

5 day old "Baby K"


























I was so lucky to be able to photograph this darling baby. I learned so much from this Newborn shoot.

1st If the baby is crying, let him eat.

2nd Don't try posing the baby on his belly until he is fast asleep. (We tried this while he was awake and hungry, didn't work AT ALL)
3rd Set up on the floor. Using a table worked well for lighting but I had a really hard time relaxing because I was too worried about him arching his back and falling onto the floor.

4th I really need to invest in more lighting equipment...Hope its not expensive...
5th Eat before hand and bring snacks! It can take a while.
